Default Re: Results

"I played a similar situation the day before, but (for various reasons) I decided to raise the turn instead of just call. My opponent 3-bet me.... with AJ, no pair, no draw. This is not an isolated occurrence."

I don't buy this as not an isolated occurrence. Hey, maybe I'm getting bluffed out of pots left and right, but I do not see this kind of junk being turned over when others are involved in pots. Maybe that's because I'm playing 35 tables at once.

I think we should post every hand in which we see somebody threebet the turn with nothing and keep a collection. I don't think we're going to need that big of a folder.

Default Ed, what do you do when he checks the turn?

Thanks for another great post.

I thought the most difficult aspect of this hand is what to do after you call and he checks a turn blank. There seem to be two theories:

1. Bet the turn and the river. Don't give free cards to AJ or 88.

2. Check the turn and call the river. You lose 2 BB if you walk into a checkraise from a better hand and 1 BB if you bet his pair of kings for him.

How you would approach this decision?

That's good, but IMO you should try to channel and call upon your inner Tyrone when the situation calls for it.
